RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation of co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/238,427, filed on Sep. 29, 2005, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Nos. 60/615,292 filed on Oct. 1, 2004; 60/617,905 filed on Oct. 12, 2004; and 60/717,290 filed on Sep. 15, 2005, incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

FIELD OF INVENTION

The present invention relates to a process for preparing spiro-hydantoin compounds and substituted spiro-hydantoin compounds. Also provided are crystalline forms of the substituted spiro-hydantoin compound, 5-[(5S,9R)-9-(4-Cyanophenyl)-3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,7-triazaspiro[4.4]non-7-ylmethyl]-thiophene-3-carboxylic acid, including solvates and salts thereof as well as methods of use thereof. Crystalline forms of certain intermediates are also provided.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

A key event in an immune response involves the migration of leukocytes to a disease site. During an inflammatory response, leukocytes are recruited to the site of injury and are extravasated by a series of cellular interactions involving cell-cell and cell-substrate adhesion. The administration of compounds that inhibit these cellular interactions of leukocytes provides a route for treating inflammatory or immune diseases.

One family of molecules that serves an important adhesive function is integrins. Integrins are expressed on cell surfaces and function in cell-cell and cell-substrate adhesion. Integrins are alpha-beta heterodimers: each integrin has an alpha (α) subunit non-covalently bound to a beta (β) subunit. There are four known integrins having a β₂ or CD18 subunit, which comprise the CD11/CD18 integrin sub-family, namely, Lymphocyte Function-associated Antigen 1 (LFA-1) (CD11a/CD18 or α_(L)β₂); Macrophage Antigen 1 (Mac-1) (CD11b/CD18 or α_(M)β₂); p150,95 (CD11c/CD18 or α_(X)β₂); and α_(D)β₂. The CD11/CD18 family of integrins is also referred to as Leukointegrins as they are expressed on the surface of various leukocyte cells, and they mediate a number of inflammation-related cellular interactions. See Diamond et al., “The Dynamic Regulation of Integrin Adhesiveness” Current Biology, Vol. 4 (1994) at pp. 506-532.

When activated, the integrins bind to extracellular ligands and induce adhesion. Ligands to LFA-1 and Mac-1 comprise the intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) ICAM-1. The primary CD11/CD18 integrin is LFA-1, which also binds with ICAM-2 and ICAM-3. The interaction between the CD18 integrins, particularly LFA-1, and ICAMs mediates antigen presentation, T-cell proliferation, and adhesion between the endothelium and activated leukocytes, which is necessary for leukocytes to migrate from the circulatory system into tissue. Compounds inhibiting CD18 integrins, ICAMs, and/or the LFA-1:ICAM interaction have demonstrated a wide range of utilities in treating inflammatory or immune diseases. Compounds that reportedly inhibit LFA-1/ICAM for use as anti-inflammatory agents include thiadiazole-based compounds (see Intern. Pub. No. WO 99/20,618, “Thiadiazole Amides Useful as Anti-Inflammatory Agents” filed by Pharmacia & Upjohn Co.; and WO 99/20,617, also to Pharmacia and Upjohn); and thiazole compounds linked to phenyl and pyrazole rings (Sanfilippo et al, “Novel Thiazole Based Heterocycles as Inhibitors of LFA-1/ICAM-1 Mediated Cell Adhesion,” J. Med. Chem., Vol. 38 (1995) at pp. 1057-1059). Small molecules that reportedly are antagonists to the binding of ICAMs with CD18 integrins include various benzylamines and 2-bromobenzoyltryptophan compounds (see Intern. Pub. No. WO99/49,856, “Antagonists for Treatment of CD11/CD 18 Adhesion Receptor Mediated Disorders/” filed by Genentech, Inc.), and 1-(3,5 dichlorophenyl) imidazolidines (see Intern. Pub. No. WO98/39303, “Small Molecules Useful in the Treatment of Inflammatory Disease/” filed by Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, Inc. See also Boehringer patent applications WO 01/07052, WO 01/07048, WO 01/07044, WO 01/06984, and WO 01/07440). Hydantoin compounds are disclosed in Intern. Pub. No's WO 00/59880, WO 00/39081, WO 02/02522, WO 02/02539 (all to Abbott Laboratories). LFA-1 antagonist compounds are also claimed in WO 02/059114 (to Genentech), WO 02/42294 (to Celltech), WO 01/51508 (to Science and Technology corporation), WO 00/21920 and WO 01/58853 (both to Hoffmann-LaRoche), WO 99/11258, WO 00/48989 and WO 02/28832 (all to Novartis). Hydantoin compounds are disclosed in Intern. Pub. No. WO 01/30781 A2 (published May 3, 2001) to Tanabe Seiyaku Co. Ltd. “Inhibitors of α_(L)β₂ Mediated Cell Adhesion,” and in Intern. Pub. No. WO 02/44181 (published Jun. 6, 2002), “Hydantoin Compounds Useful as Anti-Inflammatory Agents”, to the present assignee and having common inventors herewith.

U.S. Patent Application Publication 2004/0009998 A1 (to present assignee), incorporated herein by reference, discloses aryl or heteroaryl substituted spiro-hydantoin compounds that are effective as antagonists of Leukointegrins and/or ICAMs. The reference also discloses various processes to prepare these spiro-hydantoins, such as a multistep synthesis that includes the introduction and subsequent removal of protecting groups.

However, there are recognized difficulties associated with the adaptation of the disclosed multistep synthesis for preparing such spiro-hydantoin compounds to larger scale, such as production in a pilot plant or on a manufacturing scale. Desired in the art is a process suitable for the production of these aryl or heteroaryl substituted spiro-hydantoin compounds in larger quantities than typically prepared by laboratory scale processes. Also desired is a process that optionally provides facile separation of enantiomeric mixtures to allow the preparation of a specific enantiomer of these substituted spiro-hydantoin compounds. Additionally, there exists a need for crystalline forms of the aryl and heteroaryl substituted spiro-hydantoins as well as certain intermediates which may exhibit desirable and beneficial chemical and physical properties.

The present invention is directed to these, as well as other important aspects.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The following are definitions of terms used in this specification and appended claims. The initial definition provided for a group or term herein applies to that group or term throughout the specification and claims, individually or as part of another group, unless otherwise indicated.

The term “alkyl” refers to a straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 8 carbon atoms. Lower alkyl groups, that is, alkyl groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, are most preferred. When numbers appear in a subscript after the symbol “C”, the subscript defines with more specificity the number of carbon atoms that a particular group may contain. For example, “C₁₋₆alkyl” refers to straight and branched chain alkyl groups with one to six carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, t-butyl, n-pentyl, and so forth. The subscript “0” refers to a bond. Thus, the term hydroxy(C₀₋₂)alkyl or (C₀₋₂)hydroxyalkyl includes hydroxy, hydroxymethyl and hydroxyethyl.

The term “substituted alkyl” refers to an alkyl group as defined above having one, two, or three substituents selected from halo (e.g., trifluoromethyl), alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, alkynyl, nitro, cyano, oxo (═O), —OR_(a), —SR_(a), (═S), —NR_(a)R_(b), —N(alkyl)₃ ⁺, —NR_(a)SO₂, —NR_(a)SO₂R_(c), —SO₂R_(c), —SO₂NR_(a)R_(b), —SO₂NR_(a)C(═O)R_(b), —SO₃H, —PO(OH)₂, —C(═O)R_(a), —CO₂R_(a), —C(═O)NR_(a)R_(b), —C(═O)(C₁₋₄alkylene)NR_(a)R_(b), —C(═O)NR_(a)(SO₂)R_(b), —CO₂(C₁₋₄alkylene)NR_(a)R_(h), —NR_(a)C(═O)R_(b), —NR_(a)CO₂R_(b), —NR_(a)(C₁₋₄alkylene)CO₂R_(b), ═N—OH, ═N—O-alkyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, heterocyclo, and/or heteroaryl, wherein R_(a) and R_(b) are selected from hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, —CO₂H, —CO₂(alkyl), C₃₋₇cycloalkyl, phenyl, benzyl, phenylethyl, napthyl, a four to seven membered heterocyclo, and a five to six membered heteroaryl, or when attached to the same nitrogen atom may join to form a heterocyclo or heteroaryl, and R_(c) is selected from same groups as R_(a) and R_(b) but is not hydrogen. Each group R_(a) and R_(b) when other than hydrogen, and each R_(c) group optionally has up to three further substituents attached at any available carbon or nitrogen atom of R^(a), R_(b), and/or R^(c), said substituent(s) selected from (C₁₋₆)alkyl, (C₂₋₆)alkenyl, hydroxy, halogen, cyano, nitro, CF₃, —O(C₁₋₆alkyl), —OCF₃, —C(═O)H, —C(═O)(C₁₋₆alkyl), —CO₂H, —CO₂(C₁₋₆alkyl), —NHCO₂(C₁₋₆alkyl), —S(C₁₋₆alkyl), —NH₂, —NH(C₁₋₆alkyl), —N(C₁₋₆alkyl)₂, —N(CFh)₃ ⁺, —SO₂(C₁₋₆alkyl), —C(═O)(C₁₋₄alkylene)NH₂, —C(═O)(C₁₋₄alkylene)NH(alkyl), —C(═O)(C₁₋₄alkylene)N(C₁₋₄alkyl)₂, C₃₋₇cycloalkyl, phenyl, benzyl, phenylethyl, phenyloxy, benzyloxy, napthyl, a four to seven membered heterocyclo, or a five to six membered heteroaryl. When a substituted alkyl is substituted with an aryl, heterocyclo, cycloalkyl, or heteroaryl group, said ringed systems are as defined below and thus may have zero, one, two, or three substituents, also as defined below.

One skilled in the field will understand that, when the designation “CO₂” is used herein, this is intended to refer to the group

When the term “alkyl” is used together with another group, such as in “arylalkyl”, this conjunction defines with more specificity at least one of the substituents that the substituted alkyl will contain. For example, “arylalkyl” refers to a substituted alkyl group as defined above where at least one of the substituents is an aryl, such as benzyl. Thus, the term aryl(C₀₋₄)alkyl includes a substituted lower alkyl having at least one aryl substituent and also includes an aryl directly bonded to another group, i.e., aryl(C₀)alkyl.

The term “alkenyl” refers to straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups having 2 to 12 carbon atoms and at least one double bond. Alkenyl groups of 2 to 6-carbon atoms and having one double bond are most preferred.

The term “alkynyl” refers to straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups having 2 to 12 carbon atoms and at least one triple bond. Alkynyl groups of 2 to 6-carbon atoms and having one triple bond are most preferred.

The term “alkylene” refers to bivalent straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 8 carbon atoms, e.g., {—CH₂—}_(n), wherein n is 1 to 12, preferably 1-8. Lower alkylene groups, that is, alkylene groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, are most preferred. The terms “alkenylene” and “alkynylene” refer to bivalent radicals of alkenyl and alkynyl groups, respectively, as defined above.

When reference is made to a substituted alkenyl, alkynyl, alkylene, alkenylene, or alkynylene group, these groups are substituted with one to three substituents as defined above for substituted alkyl groups.

The term “heteroalkylene” is used herein to refer to saturated and unsaturated bivalent straight or branched chain hydrocarbon groups having 2 to 12 carbon atoms, preferably 2 to 8 carbon atoms, wherein one or two carbon atoms in the straight chain are replaced by heteroatom(s) selected from —O—, —S—, —S(═O)—, —SO₂—, —NH—, and —NHSO₂—. Thus, the term “heteroalkylene” includes bivalent alkoxy, thioalkyl, and aminoalkyl groups, as defined below, as well as alkylene and alkenylene groups having a combination of heteroatoms in the alkyl chain. As an illustration, a “heteroalkylene” herein may comprise groups such as —CH₂—NH—, —S—CH₂)₁₋₅NH—CH₂—, —O—(CH₂), 3S(═O)—CH₂—, and so forth. Preferably, a heteroalkylene does not have two adjacent atoms simultaneously selected from —O— and —S—. When a subscript is used with the term heteroalkylene, e.g., as in C₂₋₃heteroalkylene, the subscript refers to the number of carbon atoms in the group in addition to heteroatoms. Thus, for example, a C₁₋₂heteroalkylene may include groups such as —NH—CH₂—, —CH₂—NH—CH₂—, —CH₂—CH₂—NH—, —S—CH₂—, —CH₂—S—CH₂, —O—CH₂—NH—CH₂—, —CH₂—O—CH₂— and so forth.

The term “substituted heteroalkylene” refers to a heteroalkylene group as defined above wherein at least one of the nitrogen or carbon atoms in the heteroalkylene chain is bonded to (or substituted with) a group other than hydrogen. Carbon atoms in the heteroalkylene chain may be substituted with a group selected from those recited above for substituted alkyl groups, or with a further alkyl or substituted alkyl group. Nitrogen atoms of the heteroalkylene chain may be substituted with a group selected from alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cyano, and -A₁-Q-A₂-R₁₆, wherein A₁ is a bond, C₁₋₂alkylene, or C₂₋₃alkenylene; Q is a bond, —C(═O)—, —C(═O)NR_(d)—, —C(═S)NR_(d)—, —SO₂—, —SO₂NR_(d)—, —CO₂—, or —NR_(d)CO₂—; A₂ is a bond, C₁₋₃alkylene, C₂₋₃alkenylene, —C₁₋₄alkylene-NR_(d)—, —C₁₋₄alkylene-NR_(d)C(═O)—, —C₁₋₄alkylene-S—, —C₁₋₄alkylene-SO₂—, or —C₁₋₄alkylene-O—, wherein said A₂ alkylene groups are branched or straight chain and, optionally, substituted as defined herein for substituted alkylene; each R₁₆ is independently hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclo, or cycloalkyl; and R_(d) is selected from hydrogen, alkyl, and substituted alkyl, as defined herein, provided, however, that R₁₆ is not hydrogen when A₁, Q, and A₂ are each bonds. When R₁₆ is aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, or heterocyclo, these rings are, in turn, optionally substituted with one to three groups as defined below in the definitions for these terms.

The term “alkoxy” refers to an alkyl or substituted alkyl group as defined above having one or two oxygen atoms (—O—) in the alkyl chain. For example, the term “alkoxy” includes the groups —O—C₁₋₁₂alkyl, —(C₁₋₆alkylene)-O—C₁₋₆alkyl, —(C₁₋₄alkylene-O—C₁₋₄alkylene)-O—C₁₋₄alkyl, and so forth.

The term “thioalkyl” or “alkylthio” refers to an alkyl or substituted alkyl group as defined having one or two sulfur atoms in the alkyl chain. For example, the term “thioalkyl” or “alkylthio” includes the groups —S—C₁₋₁₂alkyl, —(S—C₁₋₆alkylene)-S—C₁₋₆alkyl, and so forth.

The terms “aminoalkyl” or “alkylamino” refer to an alkyl or substituted alkyl group as defined above having one or two nitrogen (—NR—) atoms in the alkyl chain. For example, the term “aminoalkyl” includes the groups —NR—C₁₋₁₂alkyl, —NR—C₁₋₆alkylene-NR—C₁₋₆alkyl, etc. (where R is preferably hydrogen but may include alkyl or substituted alkyl as defined above.) When a subscript is used with reference to an alkoxy, thioalkyl or aminoalkyl, the subscript refers to the number of carbon atoms that the group may contain in addition to heteroatoms. Thus, for example, monovalent C₁₋₂aminoalkyl includes the groups —CH₂—NH₂, —NH—CH₃, —(CH₂)₂—NH₂, —NH—CH₂—CH₃, —CH₂—NH—CH₃, and —N—(CH₃)₂. A lower aminoalkyl comprises an aminoalkyl having one to four carbon atoms. “Amino” refers to the group NH₂.

The alkoxy, thioalkyl, or aminoalkyl groups may be monovalent or bivalent. By “monovalent” it is meant that the group has a valency (i.e., ability to combine with another group), of one, and by “bivalent” it is meant that the group has a valency of two. Thus, for example, a monovalent alkoxy includes groups such as —O—C₁₋₁₂alkyl, —C₁₋₆alkylene-O—C₁₋₆alkyl, —C₁₋₄alkylene-O—C₁₋₄alkylene-O—C₁₋₄alkyl, whereas a bivalent alkoxy includes groups such as —O—C₁₋₁₂alkylene-, —C₁₋₆alkylene-O—C₁₋₆alkylene-, —C₁₋₄alkylene-O—C₁₋₄alkylene-O—C₁₋₄alkylene-, and so forth.

It should be understood that the selections for alkoxy, thioalkyl, and aminoalkyl will be made by one skilled in the field to provide stable compounds.

The term “acyl” refers to a carbonyl group linked to an organic radical, more particularly, the group —C(═O)R_(c), as well as the bivalent groups —C(═O)— or —C(═O)R_(c)—, which are linked to organic radicals. The group R_(c) can be selected from alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aminoalkyl, substituted alkyl, substituted alkenyl, or substituted alkynyl, as defined herein, or when appropriate, the corresponding bivalent group, e.g., alkylene, alkenylene, etc. Accordingly, in alkene compound (I), spiro-hydantoin compound (II), and substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (III), when it is recited that G can be “acyl,” this is intended to encompass a selection for G of —C(═O)— and also the groups —C(═O)R_(c)— or —R_(c)C(═O)—, wherein in this instance, the group R_(c) will be selected from bivalent groups, e.g., alkylene, alkenylene, alkynylene, bivalent aminoalkyl, substituted alkylene, substituted alkenylene, or substituted alkynylene.

The term “alkoxycarbonyl” refers to a carboxy group

linked to an organic radical (CO₂R_(c)), as well as the bivalent groups —CO₂—, —CO₂R_(c)— which are linked to organic radicals in alkene compound (I), spiro-hydantoin compound (II) and substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (III), wherein R_(c) is as defined above for acyl. The organic radical to which the carboxy group is attached may be monovalent (e.g., —CO₂-alkyl or —OC(═O)alkyl), or bivalent (e.g., —CO₂-alkylene, —OC(═O)alkylene, etc.). Accordingly, in alkene compound (I), spiro-hydantoin compound (II), and substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (III), when it is recited that G can be “alkoxycarbonyl,” this is intended to encompass a selection for G of —CO₂— and also the groups —CO₂R_(c)— or —R_(c)CO₂—, wherein in this instance, the group R_(c) will be selected from bivalent groups, e.g., alkylene, alkenylene, alkynylene, bivalent aminoalkyl, substituted alkylene, substituted alkenylene, or substituted alkynylene.

The term “amide” or “amidyl” refers to the group —C(═O)NR_(a)R_(b), wherein the groups R_(a) and R_(b) are defined as recited above in the definition for substituted alkyl groups.

The term “sulfonyl” refers to a sulphoxide group linked to an organic radical, more particularly, the monovalent group —S(O)₁₋₂—R_(c), or the bivalent group —S(O)₁₋₂-linked to organic radicals. Accordingly, in alkene compound (I), spiro-hydantoin compound (II), and substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (III), when it is recited that G can be “sulfonyl.” this is intended to encompass a selection for G of —S(═O)— or —SO₂— as well as the groups —S(═O)R_(e)—, —R_(e)S(═O)—, —SO₂R_(e), or —R_(e)SO₂—, wherein in this instance, the group R_(e) will be selected from those recited above for acyl and alkoxycarbonyl groups.

The term “sulfonamidyl” refers to the group —S(O)₂NR_(a)R_(b), wherein R_(a) and R_(b) are as defined above for substituted alkyl groups. Additionally, the sulfonamidyl group may be bivalent, in which case one of the groups R_(a) and R_(b) will be a bond. Thus, in alkene compound (I), spiro-hydantoin compound (II), and substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (III), when it is stated that G may be sulfonamidyl, it is intended to mean that G is a group —S(O)₂NR_(a)—.

The compounds of formulae I to III can form salts which are also within the scope of this invention. Unless otherwise indicated, reference to a compound of one of formulae I to III is understood to include reference to salts thereof. The term “salt(s)” denotes acidic and/or basic salts formed with inorganic and/or organic acids and bases. In addition, the term “salt(s) may include zwitterions (inner salts), e.g., when a compound of formulae I to III contains both a basic moiety, such as an amine or a pyridine or imidazole ring, and an acidic moiety, such as a carboxylic acid. Pharmaceutically acceptable (i.e., non-toxic, physiologically acceptable) salts are preferred, such as, for example, acceptable metal and amine salts in which the cation does not contribute significantly to the toxicity or biological activity of the salt. However, other salts may be useful, e.g., in isolation or purification steps which may be employed during preparation, and thus, are contemplated within the scope of the invention. Salts of the compounds of the formulae I to III may be formed, for example, by reacting a compound of the formulae I to III with an amount of acid or base, such as an equivalent amount, in a medium such as one in which the salt precipitates or in an aqueous medium followed by lyophilization.

Exemplary acid addition salts include acetates (such as those formed with acetic acid or trihaloacetic acid, for example, trifluoroacetic acid), adipates, alginates, ascorbates, aspartates, benzoates, benzenesulfonates, bisulfates, borates, butyrates, citrates, camphorates, camphorsulfonates, cyclopentanepropionates, digluconates, dodecylsulfates, ethanesulfonates, fumarates, glucoheptanoates, glycerophosphates, hemisulfates, heptanoales, hexanoates, hydrochlorides (formed with hydrochloric acid), hydrobromides (formed with hydrogen bromide), hydroiodides, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonates, lactates, maleates (formed with maleic acid), methanesulfonates (formed with methanesulfonic acid), 2-naphthalenesulfonates, nicotinates, nitrates, oxalates, pectinates, persulfates, 3-phenylpropionates, phosphates, picrates, pivalates, propionates, salicylates, succinates, sulfates (such as those formed with sulfuric acid), sulfonates (such as those mentioned herein), tartrates, thiocyanates, toluenesulfonates such as tosylates, undecanoates, and the like.

Exemplary basic salts include ammonium salts, alkali metal salts such as sodium, lithium, and potassium salts; alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium and magnesium salts; barium, zinc, and aluminum salts; salts with organic bases (for example, organic amines) such as trialkylamines such as triethylamine, procaine, dibenzylamine, N-benzyl-β-phenethylamine, 1-ephenamine, N,N′-dibenzylethylene-diamine, dehydroabietylamine, N-ethylpiperidine, benzylamine, dicyclohexylamine or similar pharmaceutically acceptable amines and salts with amino acids such as arginine, lysine and the like. Basic nitrogen-containing groups may be quaternized with agents such as lower alkyl halides (e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), dialkyl sulfates (e.g., dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl, and diamyl sulfates), long chain halides (e.g., decyl, lauryl, myristyl and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), aralkyl halides (e.g., benzyl and phenethyl bromides), and others. Preferred salts include monohydrochloride, hydrogensulfate, methanesulfonate, phosphate or nitrate salts.

Prodrugs and solvates of the compounds of formulae II and III are also contemplated. The term “prodrug” denotes a compound which, upon administration to a subject, undergoes chemical conversion by metabolic or chemical processes to yield a compound of the formulae II or III, and/or a salt and/or solvate thereof. For example, compounds containing a carboxy group can form physiologically hydrolyzable esters which serve as prodrugs by being hydrolyzed in the body to yield formulae II or III compounds per se. Such prodrugs are preferably administered orally since hydrolysis in many instances occurs principally under the influence of the digestive enzymes. Parenteral administration may be used where the ester per se is active, or in those instances where hydrolysis occurs in the blood. Examples of physiologically hydrolyzable esters of compounds of formulae II and III include C₁₋₆alkylbenzyl, 4-methoxybenzyl, indanyl, phthalyl, methoxymethyl, C₁₋₆alkanoyloxy-C₁₋₆alkyl, e.g. acetoxymethyl, pivaloyloxymethyl or propionyloxymethyl, C₁₋₆alkoxycarbonyloxy-C₁₋₆alkyl, e.g. methoxycarbonyl-oxymethyl or ethoxycarbonyloxymethyl, glycyloxymethyl, phenylglycyloxymethyl, (5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxolen-4-yl)-methyl and other well known physiologically hydrolyzable esters used, for example, in the penicillin and cephalosporin arts. Such esters may be prepared by conventional techniques known in the art.

The compounds of the formulae I to III, and salts thereof may exist in their tautomeric form, in which hydrogen atoms are transposed to other parts of the molecules and the chemical bonds between the atoms of the molecules are consequently rearranged. It should be understood that the all tautomeric forms, insofar as they may exist, are included within the invention. When diastereomeric products are prepared, they can be separated by conventional methods for example, chromatographic or fractional crystallization. The compounds of formulae I to III may be in the free or hydrate form.

Compounds of the formulae II and III may also have prodrug forms. Any compound that will be converted in vivo to provide the bioactive agent (i.e. the compound for formula II) is a prodrug within the scope and spirit of the invention.

Various forms of prodrugs are well known in the art. For examples of such prodrug derivatives, see:

It should further be understood that solvates (e.g., hydrates) of the compounds of formulae II and III are also with the scope of the present invention. Methods of solvation are generally known in the art.

Cycloadditions to alkene isomers are commonly conducted in a nonpolar solvent to minimize conversion between the cis and trans isomers of the alkene starting material, in order to obtain a high yield of product with a particular stereochemistry. Conversion between the cis and trans isomers can occur in the presence of polar solvent leading to the formation of diastereomer mixtures. In the cycle-addition to provide the spiro-hydantoin compound (II), the inventors have discovered that the reaction of the alkene compound (I) and glycine or glycine ester in only nonpolar solvent gave diminishing yields of spiro-hydantoin II as the reaction was scaled to produce larger quantities. Further, reaction yields in only nonpolar solvent were often nonreproducible for a given scale of reaction. However, in the presence of polar solvent, the inventors discovered it was possible to scale the reaction of the alkene compound (I) and glycine to provide a commercially viable process. Further, the inventors have surprisingly discovered that with the use of polar solvent in the present cycloaddition, significant isomerization between the trans isomer to the cis isomer of the alkene compound (I) did not occur. Surprisingly, the present cycloaddition was found to provide a reaction that could be scaled up to pilot plant scale without significant isomerization of the trans isomer to the cis isomer and concomitant loss of the desired diastereomeric product.

In the process of the invention, the alkene compound (I) is contacted with at least one methylene precursor compound, and glycine or glycine ester. The methylene precursor compound serves as a source of a methylene group. The methylene precursor compound may provide the methylene group directly, such as through decomposition of the methylene precursor compound, or indirectly through the formation of an intermediate compound that subsequently forms the methylene group. Examples of methylene precursor compounds include, for example, formaldehyde, dimethoxymethane, trioxane, paraformaldehyde, and hexamethylenetetramine. Formaldehyde may be provided, for example, as a gas, which can be bubbled into the reaction mixture, or as an aqueous formaldehyde solution. A preferred methylene precursor compound is hexamethylenetetramine. Suitable glycine esters include glycine alkyl esters such as glycine methyl ester and glycine ethyl ester. Glycine is preferred.

Alternatively, the methylene precursor compound and the glycine or glycine ester compound may be provided as a condensation product of the methylene precursor compound and the glycine or glycine ester. Examples of suitable condensation products of the methylene precursor compound include:

The alkene compound (I) may be contacted with the methylene precursor compound, and the glycine or glycine ester by admixing these ingredients in any order, such as, for example, combining the alkene compound (I) with glycine to form a mixture, and then adding to the methylene precursor compound to the mixture. The alkene compound (I), the methylene precursor compound, and the glycine or glycine ester may be combined prior to reaction, or alternatively, one or more of these ingredients may be gradually added to the reaction mixture during the course of the reaction.

The reaction is conducted in the presence of a polar solvent. As used herein, “polar solvent” refers to a solvent having a dielectric constant of at least 15. Preferably, the polar solvent has a dielectric constant of at least 30. Suitable polar solvents include, for example, acetone, acetonitrile, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, N,N-dimethylacetamide, dimethylformamide, isobutyl alcohol, methanol, 2-methoxyethanol, methylethylketone, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, tetramethyl urea, or mixtures thereof. Preferred polar solvents include acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylacetamide, methanol, dimethylformamide, methylethylketone, 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone, or mixtures thereof. A more preferred polar solvent is 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone. Typically, the reaction may be conducted in a solvent mixture comprising the polar solvent and nonpolar solvent. As used herein, “nonpolar solvent” refers to refers to a solvent having a dielectric constant of less than 15. Preferably, the nonpolar solvent has a dielectric constant of less than 1.0, and more preferably, less than 5. Suitable nonpolar solvents include, for example, benzene; toluene; or xylene (ortho, meta, para, or a mixture thereof); alkanes such as hexane, heptane, and cyclohexane; and chlorinated solvents such as carbon tetrachloride and chloroform. Mixtures of nonpolar solvent may be employed. Examples of suitable polar/nonpolar solvent mixtures include ratios of polar solvent to nonpolar solvent in the range of about 95:5 to about 5:95, preferably in the range of from about 85:15 to about 45:55, and more preferably in the range of from about 75:25 to about 55:45, based on weight. A preferred polar/nonpolar solvent mixture is 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone and toluene in a ratio of about 67:33, based on weight.

Suitable reaction temperatures for this reaction include temperatures in the range of from about 100° C. to about 160° C. Tire reaction may be conducted in the presence of synthesis adjuvants such as water or metal salts with or without ligands. Preferably, the amount of water in the reaction mixture is minimized. For example, the reaction may be conducted with a reaction mixture that includes less than 3 weight %, preferably less than 2 weight %, and more preferably, less than 1 weight %, based on the weight of the reaction mixture. Techniques to minimize the level of water in the reaction mixture are known in the art, and include removing water from reagents and solvents prior conducting the reaction. The amount of water in the reaction mixture may be determined by Karl Fischer titration. The extent of reaction may be monitored by a suitable technique such as high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) or nuclear magnetic resonance detection. Examples of suitable yields of spiro-hydantoin compound (II) include greater than about 50 weight %, preferably greater than about 70 weight %, and more preferably, greater than about 85 weight %.

The process of this invention affords the spiro-hydantoin compound of formula II and, optionally, animal of the spiro-hydantoin compound of formula II. An aminal has the structure:

wherein R′ and R″ represent substituent groups. Optionally R′ and R″ may be joined to form a ring. In one embodiment, the aminal is an aminal dimer of the spiro-hydantoin compound of formula II and is formed between two molecules of the spiro-hydantoin compound of formula II that are linked together by a methylene bridge between the two ring amines. Examples of aminal dimers of the spiro-hydantoin compound of formula II include the racemic aminal dimer of formula IVa

and the meso aminal dimer of formula IVb

After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture may contain a mixture of the spiro-hydantoin compound (II) and one or more aminals of the spiro-hydantoin compound (II). The aminal may be cleaved by acidifying the reaction mixture with the addition of an acid such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, or methanesulfonic acid to afford the spiro-hydantoin compound (II) in greater yield. Another method to cleave the aminal dimer is addition of bisulfite salt. Alternatively, the aminal may be cleaved by treatment with an amine or diamine, for example, ethylene diamine, N-methyl diamine, or propylenediamine. A combination of the aforementioned methods may be employed to cleaved the aminal. The spiro-hydantoin compound (II) may be obtained by cooling the reaction mixture to a temperature below about 30° C., and filtering the spiro-hydantoin compound (II) from the reaction mixture. The resulting spiro-hydantoin compound (II) may be obtained as a salt, for example, as a hydrochloric acid salt; or worked up with an organic solvent and aqueous workup to afford spiro-hydantoin compound (II).

The process of the invention is useful for preparing the spiro-hydantoin compound (II), or enantiomers of the spiro-hydantoin compound (II), represented by spiro-hydantoin compound (IIa)

and spiro-hydantoin compound (lib):

The process of the invention may optionally include a step for separating the enantiomers of spiro-hydantoin compound (II) to provide the individual enantiomers represented by formulae IIa and IIb. The enantiomers of the spiro-hydantoin compound (II) may be resolved from a racemic mixture by various methods known in the art, such as, for example, classical resolution, separation by chiral chromatography such as with a simulating moving bed or HPLC, or enzymatic resolution. In one non-limiting embodiment, the enantiomers of spiro-hydantoin compound (II) are resolved by contacting the racemic mixture of spiro-hydantoin compound (II) with an enantiomeric acid. Examples of enantiomeric acids include tartaric acid; O-substituted tartaric acid such as (+)-di-p-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid, (+)-di-p-benzoyl-D-tartaric acid, (+)-di-p-o-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid, enantiomers of these acids, or a mixtures thereof. Preferred is (+)-di-p-toluoyl-D-tartaric acid. In this embodiment, the racemic mixture of spiro-hydantoin compound (II) is provided as a mixture in a suitable solvent, such as methyl tertiary butyl ether, methylene chloride, 2-butanone, methyl isobutylketone, or mixture thereof; and contacted with the enantiomeric acid. The resulting mixture is seeded and cooled to allow crystallization of the salt formed by an enantiomer of spiro-hydantoin compound (II) and the corresponding enantiomeric acid. Preferably, the enantiomer is resolved by crystallizing in the presence of alcohol, such as methanol, water, or a combination thereof. The enantiomer IIa or the enantiomer IIb may be employed as a reagent in a subsequent reaction, such as the preparation of a specific enantiomer of the substituted spiro-hydantoin compound of formula III.

Crystalline Forms of 5-[(5S,9R)-9-(4-Cyanophenyl)-3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-3-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,7-triazaspiro[4.4]non-7-ylmethyl]-thiophene-3-carboxylic acid, and Solvates and Salts Thereof

The present invention provides, at least in part, crystalline forms of 5-[(5S,9R)-9-(4-Cyanophenyl)-3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,7-triazaspiro[4.4]non-7-ylmethyl]-thiophene-3-carboxylic acid (substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (IIIn)), salts, and solvates thereof.

As used herein “polymorph” refers to crystalline forms having the same chemical composition but different spatial arrangements of the molecules, atoms, and/or ions forming the crystal.

As used herein “solvate” refers to a crystalline form of a molecule and/or ions that further comprises molecules of a solvent or solvents incorporated into the crystalline lattice structure. The solvent molecules in the solvate may be present in a regular arrangement and/or a non-ordered arrangement. The solvate may comprise either a stoichiometric or nonstoichiometric amount of the solvent molecules. For example, a solvate with a nonstoichiometric amount of solvent molecules may result from partial loss of solvent from the solvate. Solvent molecules may occur as dimers or oligomers comprising more than one molecule of solvent within the crystalline lattice structure.

As used herein, “substantially pure,” when used in reference to a crystalline form, means a compound having a purity greater than 90 weight %, including greater than 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, and 99 weight %, and also including equal to about 100 weight % of the compound, based on the weight of the compound. The remaining material comprises other form(s) of the compound, and/or reaction impurities and/or processing impurities arising from its preparation. For example, a crystalline form of a compound may be deemed substantially pure in that it has a purity greater than 90 weight % of the crystalline form of that compound, as measured by means that are at this time known and generally accepted in the art, where the remaining less than 10 weight % of material comprises other form(s) of the compound and/or reaction impurities and/or processing impurities. The presence of reaction impurities and/or processing impurities may be determined by analytical techniques known in the art, such as, for example, chromatography, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, or infrared spectroscopy.

As used herein, the unit cell parameter “molecules/unit cell” refers to the number of molecules of the compound in the unit cell.

Samples of the crystalline forms may be provided with substantially pure phase homogeneity, indicating the presence of a dominant amount of a single polymorph and, optionally, minor amounts of one or more other polymorphs. The presence of more than one polymorph in a sample may be determined by techniques such as powder x-ray diffraction (XRPD) or solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. For example, the presence of extra peaks in the comparison of an experimentally measured XRPD pattern with a simulated XRPD pattern may indicate more than one polymorph in the sample. The simulated XRPD may be calculated from single crystal x-ray data, see Smith, D. K., “A FORTRAN Program for Calculating X-Ray Powder Diffraction Patterns,” Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, Livermore, Calif., UCRL-7196 (April 1963). Preferably, the crystalline form has substantially pure phase homogeneity as indicated by less than 10%, preferably less than 5%, and more preferably less than 2% of the total peak area in the experimentally measured XRPD pattern arising from the extra peaks that are absent from the simulated XRPD pattern. Most preferred is a crystalline form having substantially pure phase homogeneity with less than 1% of the total peak area in the experimentally measured XRPD pattern arising from the extra peaks that are absent from the simulated XRPD pattern.

Procedures for the preparation of crystalline forms are known in the art. The crystalline forms may be prepared by a variety of methods, including for example, crystallization or recrystallization from a suitable solvent, sublimation, growth from a melt, solid state transformation from another phase, crystallization from a supercritical fluid, and jet spraying. Techniques for crystallization or recrystallization of crystalline forms from a solvent mixture include, for example, evaporation of the solvent, decreasing the temperature of the solvent mixture, crystal seeding a supersaturated solvent mixture of the molecule and/or salt, freeze drying the solvent mixture, and addition of antisolvents (countersolvents) to the solvent mixture. High throughput crystallization techniques may be employed to prepare crystalline forms including polymorphs.

Crystals of drugs, including polymorphs, methods of preparation, and characterization of drug crystals are discussed in Solid-State Chemistry of Drugs, S. R. Byrn, R. R. Pfeiffer, and J. G. Stowell, 2^(nd) Edition, SSCI, West Lafayette, Ind. (1999).

For crystallization techniques that employ solvent, the choice of solvent or solvents is typically dependent upon one or more factors, such as solubility of the compound, crystallization technique, and vapor pressure of the solvent. Combinations of solvents may be employed, for example, the compound may be solubilized into a first solvent to afford a solution, followed by the addition of an antisolvent to decrease the solubility of the compound in the solution and to afford the formation of crystals. An antisolvent is a solvent in which the compound lias low solubility. Suitable solvents for preparing crystals include polar and nonpolar solvents. Examples of solvents for crystallization include, for example, mesitylene, cis-decalin, p-xylene, m-xylene, toluene, n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, tetrachloroethene, benzene, n-decane, n-dodecane, carbon disulfide, butylamine, diethyl ether, methyl tertiary-butyl ether, triethylamine, diisopropyl ether, dibutylether, 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, anisole, o-dichlorobenzene, ethyl formate, trichloroethene, methyl benzoate, iodobenzene, chlorobenzene, methyl ethanoate, dimethyl disulfide, 1,1-dichloroethane, fluorobenzene, ethyl phenyl ether, ethyl acetate, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,2-dibromoethane, 1-iodobutane, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, propyl ethanoate, diethyl sulfide, dichloromethane, butyl ethanoate, methyl methanoate, bromoform, dibromomethane, m-cresol, 2-methoxyethanol, 1-butanol, propanoic acid, morpholine, 2-methyl-2-propanol, pentanoic acid, acetic acid, 2-propanol, 1-propanol, 1-octanol, ethanol, methyl ethyl ketone, 2,4-dimethylpyridine, acetophenone, 2,6-dimethylpyridine, 3-pentanone, 2-pentanone, 4-methylpyridine, acetone, cyclohexanone, 2-hexanone, cyclopentanone, 2-heptanone, 4-methyl-2-pentanone, 1,3-dimethyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2(1H)-pyrimidinone, 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone, pyrrolidinone, pyridine, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide, benzonitrile, propanenitrile, acetonitrile, butanenitrile, nitromethane, nitrobenzene, aniline, benzyl alcohol, formic acid, ethylene glycol, methanol, diethylamine, diiodomethane, glycerol, water, formamide, N-methylacetamide, N-methylformamide, methyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, butyl acetate, t-butyl acetate, hexachloroacetone, N,N-dimethylpropionamide, and hexamethylphosphoramide, 2-butanol, t-butyl alcohol, 2-nitroethanol, 2-fluoroethanol, 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol, neo-pentyl alcohol, t-pentyl alcohol, cyclohexanol, and phenol, diethylene glycol, 1-, 2-, or 3-pentanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 2-butanol, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, and methyl t-butyl ether.

In one method to prepare crystals, a compound is suspended and/or stirred in a suitable solvent to afford a slurry, which may be heated to promote dissolution. The term “slurry”, as used herein, means a saturated solution of the compound, which may also contain an additional amount of the compound to afford a heterogeneous mixture of the compound and a solvent at a given temperature.

Seed crystals may be added to any crystallization mixture to promote crystallization. Seeding may be employed to control growth of a particular polymorph or to control the particle size distribution of the crystalline product. Accordingly, calculation of the amount of seeds needed depends on the size of the seed available and the desired size of an average product particle as described, for example, in “Programmed Cooling of Batch Crystallizers,” J. W. Mullin and J. Nyvlt, Chemical Engineering Science, 1971, 26, 369-377. In general, seeds of small size are needed to control effectively the growth of crystals in the batch. Seed of small size may be generated by sieving, milling, or micronizing of large crystals, or by micro-crystallization of solutions. Care should be taken that milling or micronizing of crystals does not result in any change in crystallinity form the desired crystal form (i.e., change to amorphous or to another polymorph).

A cooled crystallization mixture may be filtered under vacuum, and the isolated solids may be washed with a suitable solvent, such as cold recrystallization solvent, and dried under a nitrogen purge to afford the desired crystalline form. The isolated solids may be analyzed by a suitable spectroscopic or analytical technique, such as solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, differential scanning calorimetry, x-ray powder diffraction, or the like, to assure formation of the preferred crystalline form of the product. The resulting crystalline form is typically produced in an amount of greater than about 70 weight % isolated yield, preferably greater than 90 weight % isolated yield, based on the weight of the compound originally employed in the crystallization procedure. The product may be comilled or passed through a mesh screen to delump the product, if necessary.

Crystalline forms may be prepared directly from the reaction medium of the final process for preparing the substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (IIIn). This may be achieved, for example, by employing in the final process step a solvent or a mixture of solvents from which the substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (IIIn) may be crystallized. Alternatively, crystalline forms may be obtained by distillation or solvent addition techniques. Suitable solvents for this purpose include, for example, the aforementioned nonpolar solvents and polar solvents, including protic polar solvents such as alcohols, and aprotic polar solvents such as ketones.

Assays H1-Hela Adhesion Assay

H1-Hela cells were released from their growth flask using versene (Gibco, Grand Island, N.Y.). Following centrifugation, the cells were resuspended in growth medium: DMEM (Gibco), 10% fetal calf serum (Hyclone, Logan, Utah), 1% Pen-Strep (Gibco), and 1% L-glutamine (Gibco) and plated for growth at 5,000 cells/well in a 96-well plate.

The next day, HSB-2 cells were divided to 2×10⁵/ml in growth medium: RPMI 1640 (Gibco), 10% FCS, 1% Pen-Strep, and 1% L-glutamine. The next day (day #3), the cells were centrifuged at 534×G for 8 minutes, washed, and resuspended in HBSS at 5×10⁷/ml Caicein-AM, 10 μM (Molecular Probes, Eugene, Oreg.) and 100 nM phorbol myristate acetate (SIGMA, St. Louis, Mo.) were added to the labeling and activation mix. Following incubation at 37° C. for 30 minutes, ten ml of HBSS was added and the cells centrifuged as above. The cell pellet was then resuspended and counted.

While the HSB-2 cells were labeling, the medium was aspirated from the H1-HeLa cells and the plates washed once with HBSS, followed by the addition of 50 μl of HBSS. An additional 50 μl of HBSS containing compound solution, DMSO, or anti-CD18 antibody was then added to each well. To the H1-HeLa cells were added 200,000 HSB-2 cells/well in 100 μl, followed by incubation in the dark for 30 minutes. The wells were then washed three times to remove the unbound cells. A fluorescence plate reader was then used to determine the number of bound HSB-2 cells. The percent inhibition due to the compound was calculated using the vehicle control as 0% inhibition and the antibody blocked adhesion as 100% inhibition.

On day 1, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) (passage 3, Clonetics, San Diego, Calif.) were placed into a T-75 flask containing EGM bulletkit media (Clonetics) for growth.

When the HUVEC were 90% confluent (typically day 4), 96-well tissue culture plates were coated with 100 μl/well of 2.5 μg/ml mouse Type IV collagen (Trevigen) diluted in 0.1 M acetic acid. Following incubation for at least three hours, the collagen was removed and the plate washed three times with HBSS (Gibco). The HUVEC flask was trypsinized, and HUVEC were plated on the collagen coated wells at 1250 cells/200 μl/well for use four days later. Twenty hours prior to use, the medium was removed and cells were stimulated with 200 μl of 10 nM phorbol myristate acetate (PMA, Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.) in EGM. When the cells were 90% confluent (typically day 8), the PMA-containing medium was removed, the wells were washed with HBSS, and 50 μl of HBSS was added to the wells. An additional 50 μl containing compound solution, DMSO or blocking anti-CD18 was then added to each well.

On day 7, HSB-2 cells were then divided to 2×10⁵/ml in RPMI 1640 (Gibco), 10% FCS (Hyclone, Logan, Utah), 1% Pen-Strep (Gibco), and 1% L-glutamine (Gibco). The following day, the cells were centrifuged at 534×G for 8 minutes, washed, and resuspended in HBSS at 5×10⁷/ml. For activation and labeling, calcein-AM, 10 μM (Molecular Probes, Eugene, Oreg.) and 100 nM phorbol myristate acetate (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.) were added and the cells incubated at 37° C. for 30 minutes. Following the addition of ten ml of HBSS, the cells were centrifuged, resuspended, and counted.

To the HUVEC cells were added 200,000 labeled and activated HSB-2 cells/well in 100 μl, followed by incubation in the dark for 30 minutes. To remove unbound cells, the wells were washed three times with HBSS. A fluorescence plate reader was used to determine the number of HSB-2 cells bound. The percent inhibition due to the compound was calculated with the vehicle control set at 0% inhibition and the antibody-blocked adhesion set at 100% inhibition.

Crystalline Forms of 5-[(5S,9R)-9-(4-Cyanophenyl)-3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,7-triazaspiro[4.4]non-7-ylmethyl]-thiophene-3-carboxylic acid, and Solvates and Salts

Various crystalline forms of the substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (IIIn), its solvates and salts were prepared and are tabulated in Table 1. The unit cell data and other properties for these examples are tabulated in Tables 2a and 2b. The unit cell parameters were obtained from single crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis. A detailed account of unit cells can be found in Chapter 3 of Stout & Jensen, “X-Ray Structure Determination: A Practical Guide”, (MacMillian, 1968). The fractional atomic coordinates for the various crystalline forms are tabulated in Tables 3 to 16.

X-ray powder diffraction (PXRD) data were obtained using a Bruker GADDS (General Area Detector Diffraction System) manual chi platform goniometer. Powder samples were placed in thin walled glass capillaries of 1 mm or less in diameter; the capillary was rotated during data collection. The sample-detector distance was 17 cm. The radiation was Cu Kα (λ=1.5418 Å). Data were collected for 3<2θ<35° with a sample exposure time of at least 300 seconds.

Single crystal X-ray data were collected on a Bruker-Nonius CAD4 serial diffractometer (Bruker Axs, Inc., Madison Wis.). Unit cell parameters were obtained through least-squares analysis of the experimental diffractometer settings of 25 high-angle inflections. Intensities were measured using Cu Kα radiation (λ=1.5418 Å) at a constant temperature with the θ-2θ variable scan technique and were corrected only for Lorentz-polarization factors. Background counts were collected at the extremes of the scan for half of the time of the scan. Alternately, single crystal data were collected on a Bruker-Nonius Kappa CCD 2000 system using Cu Kα radiation (λ=1.5418 Å). Indexing and processing of the measured intensity data were carried out with the HKL2000 software package in the Collect program suite R. Hooft, Nonius B. V. (1998). When indicated, crystals were cooled in the cold stream of an Oxford cryogenic system during data collection.

The structures were solved by direct methods and refined on the basis of observed reflections using either the SDP software package SDP, Structure Determination Package, Enraf-Nonius, Bohemia, N.Y.) with minor local modifications or the crystallographic package, MAXUS (maXus solution and refinement software suit: S. Mackay, C. J. Gilmore, C. Edwards, M. Tremayne, N. Stewart, and K. Shankland. maXus is a computer program for the solution and refinement of crystal structures from diffraction data.

The derived atomic parameters (coordinates and temperature factors) were refined through full matrix least-squares. The function minimized in the refinements was Σ_(W)(|F_(O)|−|F_(C)|)². R is defined as Σ∥F|−|F∥/Σ|F_(O)| while R_(W)=[Σ_(W)(|F_(O)|−|F_(C)|)²/Σ_(W)|F_(O)|²]^(1/2) where w is an appropriate weighting function based on errors in the observed intensities. Difference maps were examined at all stages of refinement. Hydrogen atoms were introduced in idealized positions with isotropic temperature factors, but no hydrogen parameters were varied.

Melting points for the crystals were determined by hot stage microscopy. Crystals were placed on a glass slide, covered with a cover slip, and heated on a Linkam LTS350 hot stage mounted on a microscope (Linkham Scientific Instruments Ltd, Tadworth, U.K.). The heating rate was controlled at 10° C./min for the temperature range, ambient to 300° C. The crystals were observed visually for evidence of phase transformation, changes in birefringence, opacity, melting, and/or decomposition.

The differential scanning calorimetry was used to test the crystalline forms was a TA Instruments™ model Q1000. The DSC cell/sample chamber was purged with 100 ml/min of ultra-high purity nitrogen gas. The instrument was calibrated with high purity indium. The heating rate was 10° C. per minute in the temperature range between 25 and 300° C. The heat flow, which was normalized by sample weight, was plotted versus the measured sample temperature, the data were reported in units of watts/gram (“W/g”). The plot was made with the endothermic peaks pointing down. The endothermic melt peak (melting point) was evaluated for extrapolated onset temperature.

Crystals of form N-1 were grown from ethylene glycol mixture with ethyl acetate as an counter-solvent (determination at −50° C.), or by slow evaporation of a solution of (S)-2-methyl-1-butanol (determination at 22° C.).

Crystals of the methanesulfonic acid salt form were prepared by dissolving the methanesulfonic acid salt of substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (IIIn) in a minimum volume of warm (˜50° C.) acetonitrile and allowing the mixture to cool slowly to ambient temperature. The crystals appeared as the solution evaporated.

Crystals of the hydrochloric acid salt form were prepared by dissolving the hydrochloric acid salt of substituted spiro-hydantoin compound (IIIn) in a minimum volume of a warm (˜50° C.) mixture of ethanol/acetonitrile and allowing the resulting mixture to cool slowly to ambient temperature. The crystals appeared as the solution evaporated.

Crystals of the solvated forms were prepared by heating a concentrated solution of Example 4 in the desired solvent followed by cooling to ambient temperature and slow evaporation. In the case of the acetonitrile and n-methylpyrrolidone forms, water was added to the warm solution as a counter-solvent.

Crystals of the desolvated form were prepared by heating crystals of the ethanol containing solvate form (E.5-2) under vacuum (˜30 mm) at 90° C. for 90 minutes, to yield single crystals of the desolvated form, T1E.5-2.

To a 500 ml 2-necked flask equipped with a stirbar, a condenser, and nitrogen sweep, were added 20.0 g of Preparation 2, 7.68 glycine, and 2.48 g hexamethylenetetramine. Next, 100 ml N-methylpyrrolidone and 50 mL toluene were added. The contents of the flask was heated to 145° C. and maintained at this temperature for approximately 6 hours. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and held for 21 hours. Next, the contents of the flask was heated to 50° C., followed by the addition of 6 mL ethylene diamine. Next, 100 mL of tetrahydrofuran was added and the reaction mixture was held at 50° C. for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and held 16-24 hours. Next, 260 mL of brine solution (20 wt. %), was added to the flask. The aqueous phase was split from the organic phase with 370 mL of the aqueous phase isolated. Half of the organic phase (67 mL) was removed and 100 mL of MeOH was charged. Solids were filtered and washed with two portions of 12.5 mL MeOH. After drying overnight at 60° C. under vacuum, 7.2423 g of 4-[(5S*,9R*)-3-(3,5-Dichlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,7-triazaspiro[4.4]non-9-yl]-benzonitrile (freebase hydrate) was collected as a white solid (65% yield).

Approximately 10-15 ml of isopropyl alcohol was added to a vial. 4-[(5S*,9R*)-3-(3,5-Dichlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,7-triazaspiro[4.4]non-9-yl]-benzonitrile (freebase hydrate) was added until a saturated solution was obtained. The saturated supernatant was filtered into a second vial and allow to stand for 4 days. A crystal formed and was removed with tweezers. The crystal was characterized by X-ray crystallography according to the procedure described in Example 4. The unit cell parameters for the resulting crystal, the crystalline form of the mono isopropanol solvate of 4-[(5S*,9R*)-3-(3,5-Dichlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,7-triazaspiro[4.4]non-9-yl]-benzonitrile, Form IPA-1, are listed in Tables 18a and 18b.

To a 500 ml 2-necked flask equipped with a stirbar, a condenser, and nitrogen sweep, was added 19.99 g Preparation 2, 7.68 glycine, and 2.48 g hexamethylenetetramine. Next, 100 ml N-methylpyrrolidone and 50 mL toluene were added. The contents of the flask was heated to 145° C. and maintained at this temperature for approximately 6 hours. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and remained at room temperature for 3 days. Distillation of the reaction mixture was started at a pressure of 50 torr and heated until distillate was remove (pot temperature was approximately 100° C.). Testing of the sample showed that the reaction was approximately 70% complete. Next, 35 mL of the distillate was recharged to the flask and heated to 145° C. for 2 hours. The contents of the flask was distilled at 50 torr until the pot temperature reached 109° C. Approximately 25 mL of distillate was collected. The contents of the flask was allowed to cool to 50° C., followed by the addition of 5 mL ethylene diamine. The contents of the flask were maintained at a temperature of 50° C. for 145 minutes. Next, 260 mL of brine solution (14 wt. %), 100 mL tetrahydrofuran, and 100 mL MTBE were added to the flask. The aqueous phase was split from the organic phase with 373 mL of the aqueous phase isolated. Material precipitated from the organic phase. The organic phase was heated to 45° C. and 100 mL of tetrahydrofuran was added. The contents of the flask was distilled and 230 mL of distillate was collected. The remaining contents of the flask was allowed to cool to room temperature followed by the addition of 200 mL methanol and then redistilled. After the addition of 120 mL methylene chloride, the contents of the flask was heated to 20° C. Next, 150 mL methylene chloride was added. The resulting solution was polish filtered and the filter was washed with 10 mL methylene chloride. To the filtrate was added 3.5339 g (+)-DTTA, followed by stirring for 10 minutes and the addition of 247.2 mg of seed crystals of Example 2a. The filtrate was filtered and washed twice with a mixture of CH₂Cl₂:MTBE (1:3). A minute amount of crystals were observed to precipitate from the wash after 2 to 3 weeks in a closed container. Crystals were isolated with tweezers.

To a 250 ml 3-necked flask equipped with a stirbar was added 10.0 g 4-[(5S*,9R)-3-(3,5-Dichlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3,7-triazaspiro[4.4]non-9-yl]-benzonitrile (freebase) and 2.65 g hexamethylenetetramine. Next, 20 mL N-methyl pyrrolidone and 25 mL toluene were added. The contents of the flask was distilled and then 25 mL toluene was added to the flask. The contents of the flask was maintained at a temperature of 145° C. for 4 hours. To the flask was added 260 ml of a 20 wt % brine solution and 100 mL tetrahydrofuran. The phases were split and the organic phase was dried over Mg₂SO₄. The organic phase was then filtered and concentrated on a rotovap. Next, 50 mL methylene chloride was added to the organic phase followed by the slow addition of 75 mL MTBE until the solution turned cloudy. The resulting precipitate was filtered from solution. A sample of the precipitate was dissolved in a minimum volume of warm MeCN/MeOH and allowed to cool slowly to ambient temperature. Crystals appeared as the solvents were evaporated from the sample solution.
